The Democratic Mayor of New York, Eric Adams, officially completed the re -election offer – but the analysts are divided into what it means for the socialist frontrinner in the race of the mayor of Big Apple.
Adams announced The end of his re -election campaign in video Posted to X on Sunday afternoon. In the announcement, the mayor also warned viewers to “find that those who claim that the answer is the destruction of the system itself, which we built together on generations”, apparently in relation to the democratic nominated for the mayor of Zohran MamdaniA recognized socialist.
Adams was withdrawn later last Surveys He showed that he followed Mamdani, a former democratic governor in New York Andrew Cuomo and republican nominated for the mayor of Curtis Slim. Analysts talked to the Daily Caller News Foundation about how recent Adams can affect the dynamics of the race to run the largest city in the country.
“If it comes to Cuomo versus Mamdani, it will be much stronger than Mamdani’s people,” said Kay himself, interviewer at Onmessage Inc., a republican consulting company for DCNF. “Each survey I saw between them has it close enough to be interesting. And now Adams, the only thing that stands on one road on one, is Republican Curtis Sliwa.”
“The most important question is whether the bright is falling off when he presses on him to do it,” Kay continued. “But the numbers suggest that Adams voters actually drift in the direction of Sliwy, not cuomo, which, as I predict, is enough to stay. This is not the case of Mamdani recently praised the integrity of the Silent. If it stays, this duration race until November, Mamdani will win convincingly.”
Mamdani’s campaign and the Cuomo campaign did not answer the request for comment.
Some Republicans have apparently He pressed the slave to give up the mayor’s race in the hope of creating a one -on -one duel between Mamdani and Cuomo. So far maintained that he intends to stay in the race.
“After the departure of the mayor of Adams, the race is reset, and the New Yorkers now need a mayor more than ever, who is not corrupt, who has not given up in shame to avoid the impeachment, and which is not a radical socialist,” said Sliwa in DCNF’s statement. “Curtis Sliwa is a choice, an independent, proven leader focused on safer streets, lower costs and the town hall that suits people.”
Many sales points Reported At the beginning of September, Trump’s officials talked to Adams about joining the administration. However, Adams negative Reports at a press conference on September 5.
Adam Weiss, CEO of AMW PR and leading “Media Exposed” at Real America’s Voice News, said DCNF that the end of his Adams re -election offer may not change the race drastically.
“Eric, who leaves, is a great news because he is the mayor in New York, but I do not think she would change the dynamics of the race,” said Weiss for DCNF.
“If Curtis comes out and it is one, he [Cuomo] He has a shot – added Weiss. “I still think that Mamdani is a leader at the moment. The population of New York has changed so much over time and it is not what was under [former New York City Mayor Mike] Bloomberg. As a whole, the Democratic Party moved to the left so radically, and most of the radical leftist voters and activists are in huge cities, so they are here. “
While Mamdani gained support from some outstanding democratic legislators, other democrats have I condemned Or rejected support him with your extremely leftist program. Marshal of the House Mike Johnson Previously said DCNF, that Mamdani’s “extreme” political views mean “bad news” for New York, but “great news for republicans from home.”
Similarly, President Donald Trump said on Monday in social truth post Mamdani’s height “will be one of the best things that has ever happened” for GOP.
“The self -proclaimed communist of New York, Zohran Mamdani, who is running for the mayor, will prove to be one of the best things that happened to our great republican party,” wrote the president on social media. “He will have problems with Washington, like no mayor in the history of our once big city. Remember that he needs money from me as a president to fulfill all his false communist promises. He will not get any of them, so what is the meaning of voting for him? This ideology has failed, always, for thousands of years. This will not work.”
In addition, a veteran political consultant Hank Sheinkopf blew up Mamdani’s views as “dangerous to democracy.”
“[Mamdani] means the potential of demagogus [in the Democratic Party] And the change that is happening in this country – said Sheinkopf DCNF. “And in my opinion it is unsafe for democracy. Because democracy is not a problem, they are not interested in democracy, they are interested in the revolution. And this is unsafe – people telling things that are unsafe for democracy. I said publicly at the beginning of this year that he was a guy to watch, and people thought I was crazy. So you have it.”
“Cuomo thinks he will win and I can’t see it [happening] Today. This [race] It is about who is better on the street and may show a voice, “said Sheinkopf.” And so far Mamdani wins this discussion. “
“I support Curtis Sliwy and I think he is the best candidate,” said DCNF former Assemblyman from New York. “I believe that he would be a great mayor. I hope that people will look at him after a second look. So many people say to me:” We like Curtis, we think he is the best guy, but he can win or can’t win “, and if all people supported Curtis, he’ll be in probes. I do not believe that Cuomo can win because his negatives are very high. Scandals covering his difficulties in keeping his hands in his pockets. “
Cuomo, who was elected Governor of New York in 2010, resigned In Hańbie in August 2021 after accusations of sexual harassment. Cuomo has negative Any offenses.
Democrat in particular he said The New York Times at the beginning of June, if he had to “do it again”, would not give up the governor in 2021.
“Sometimes [political] The party, city, city or state must go to the bottom and choose someone so bad that it finally opens the eyes of people to see how the reckless voting pattern did the city, city or state, “said Weiss DCNF, when asked about the perspective of Mamdani winning the mayor’s race. York. “
